I can't tell from the pic's so help me out here. At the end of the weld, the boiler tube is also formed into a shape before the elbow radius starts. Is that a welded part of the boiler tube to the elbow or just a formed part of 2 different diameters?
The elbow is a formed part. It appears to me the end was expanded slightly where it goes into the boiler tube. I believe this was done for "fit reasons" so the the elbow could slip inside the boiler tube for a nice tight fit before welding. Tim
